Efficient Prediction-Based Validation for Document Clustering
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 2006-05-02)
Recently, stability-based techniques have emerged as a very
promising solution to the problem of cluster validation. An inherent
drawback of these approaches is the computational cost of generating
and assessing multiple ...
Implementation of SAMPLE Protocol
(2005-09)
Wireless networks are pervasive in our society. With an increased interest shown by
the general public in wireless technologies, protocols and hardware are being actively
developed by academic and industrial groups alike. ...
Framework and architecture for the management of event-condition-action (ECA) rule-based clinical protocols
(IEEE, 2002)
Computer-based support for the incorporation of clinical practice guidelines and protocol into daily practice has recently attracted a lot of research interest within the healthcare informatics area. The aim is not only ...
Collaborative reinforcement learning of autonomic behaviour.
(IEEE Computer Society Press, 2004)
This paper introduces Collaborative Reinforcement
Learning (CRL), a coordination model for solving
system-wide optimisation problems in distributed systems
where there is no support for global state. In
CRL the autonomic ...
Implementing an Integrated Web-Based Synchronous eLearning Collaboration Platform at Tertiary Level for Part-Time Mature Evening Students
(2005-10)
This thesis focuses on the lessons learned and new insights gained, from the pilot implementation of a webbased
synchronous eLearning collaboration platform at Tertiary Level evaluated on part-time mature evening
students.

Slotted-Circus: A UTP-Family of Reactive Theories
(Springer, 2007)
We present a generic framework of UTP theories for describing systems whose behaviour is characterised by regular time-slots, compatible with the general structure of the Circus language [WC01a]. This ?slotted-Circus? ...
Decentralized Authorization for Web Services
(2005-09)
Web Services is an area that encountered a very sudden and huge explosion on its popularity during the latest years. The advantages Web Services provide compared to traditional distributed computing methods such as Remote ...
Benchmarking Knowledge-based Context Delivery System
(2006)
As context-aware systems become more widespread
and mobile there is an increasing need for a common
distributed event platform for gathering context
information and delivering to context-aware
applications. The likely ...
Self-managed decentralised systems using K-Components and collaborative reinforcement learning
(ACM, 2004)
Components in a decentralised system are faced with uncertainty as how to best adapt to a changing environment to
maintain or optimise system performance. How can individual components learn to adapt to recover from faults ...
Self-adapting context definition
(2007)
Many approaches to context-aware computing have focused on providing means for developers to define application contexts. In these approaches, correct application behavior depends on the developer defining the right contexts. ...
